6 inch bench grinder wheels

[Chisteve]

Hi I’m in the early stages of restoring an old what looks like heavy duty bench grinder

I’m going to use if for mainly sharpening wood turning chisels and general workshop use (I have a wet stone grinder)

Could any one recommend a good supplier and wheels to get (I don’t have a massive budget) but will be looking for good quality and hoping to get the widest wheels available

Presume you know that turners usually prefer white, pink or occasionally blue wheels.

S & B have the Record 40mm wide one. Don't know if it will fit other grinders without having to leave off the side guard.
Often the bugbear can be the carriage charges.

I got my last ones here. They're good. Make sure you get wheels suitable for HSS.
